Q: 8
An administrator has been tasked with monitoring performance across a number of different entities
in the Nutanix cluster. The CIO has asked the administrator to provide Analysis charts that show
performance as granularly as possible.
Given this request, what is the smallest preset time interval (in hours) that the administrator can
select in a Metric or Entity Chart?

Probably A. A lot of people mix up with B, but on current Prism Central the smallest preset is 1 hour. The 3 hour option was more common in Element or much older versions. Open to other inputs though if someone has seen different in production.
B or A? I thought 3 hours was the limit for preset intervals unless you customize it manually. Not totally certain, but I’ve always seen 3h as the lowest on some older clusters. If anyone’s sure about A, let me know.
A if we're talking Prism Central, but B was the smallest on some older Element clusters. Depends which UI they're asking about.
B
A is right here. In Prism Central, the smallest preset interval for Metric/Entity charts is 1 hour, so you can get pretty detailed data if you need it. Older Prism versions weren't always this granular but based on the wording (multiple entities), it's definitely about Prism Central. Pretty sure on this one but open to being corrected.
Yeah, it's A. Metric or Entity charts in Prism Central let you go down to 1 hour for presets. 'Different entities' is a Central hint and old Element wouldn't support that granularity for multiple items. Pretty sure about this, unless they're somehow asking about a really old interface.
A similar chart interval question came up in my practice exam reports and it was 1 hour.
Probably A, but B is tempting since I've seen some nutanix GUIs default to 3hr. Trap for old versions maybe.
B I recall seeing 3 hours as an option too in older versions.
A , saw similar in the official guide and practice test.
